Patrick Kennedy is gone!

hear. Patrick Kennedy we all know how to over the past three years. Did start -- GMT. -- took the life of my most cherished. -- While a source experience strength that I felt morally obligated to plead guilty to drive. You know when my father taught me that politics and it's very court was about serving others dogs are murdered child. And are now having spent two decades -- are. My life is taking a new direction and make a few years. It for reelection this year. -- Broadcasting revenues gross world headquarters building in Rhode Island. Reinstall my own childhood home -- spokesman Jim Graham should take.

Oh okay. That. Is -- as a Goodell went up until now non on the yeah. Knows a good dad dad's -- daylight there and that's kicking a guy when he's done you know. Tell you to come on you've gotta you gotta mrs. Matta fan hot hot hot throughout move through -- rules confuse. Definitely not satisfied all of them.

Half the minerals of people gets a lot of half half half -- the style they were the last camp provided that did add this -- star LeBron with another decision. He's decided that up Patrick Kennedy will not run. For reelection how Elliot thank you Scott Carlo right now -- have to -- press about that -- because this was going to be an exciting it was going to be a little. But he says Howard redo. -- I -- yeah there was going to be Scott Brown -- you gotta be a little.

Hum.

After -- idea I tend to agree with you it's a very very bad time for incumbents it's a dangerous time for incumbents people just so angry so frustrated and of course they lash out in the people that lash out at of the people who have. Held -- holding at least political power and so to Patrick Kennedy any incumbent but Patrick Kennedy certainly. Would have faced the most serious challenge than any he has faced up until. This point to this Korea. And I think that has to be -- the recent Hillary got beat the recent passing -- we're -- there would have been thousands of people from Massachusetts going over the border return the favor and volunteer in the campaign of the likely victory but I and I am not sure how effective that is politically I don't know that people when one state. Respond to people from another state saying we really think you should you employee fill in the -- usually that's a case that this is.

God an arrogant sort return to boss people around this is an uprising in national uprising that's going on right now now -- and a lot of rural people were part of the Massachusetts thing nobody resented that people came in from all over the country for Scott Brown. And I think to get Patrick Kennedy back where he belongs in the private sector. People would have a celebrated that national wealth to -- bigger than Rhode Island Rhode Island the size. Of a postage stamp some putting it generously. Up to big postage stamp provides about why many job so as opposed to Santa to.

That it's a state that's gone through some tough times no question about it Patrick Kennedy is so. You know he's he's he's not enough guys to understand that this would have been a very difficult to re election season very difficult campaign at the same time I think -- something logic here. It is there is something larger it is the it is the unsettling. Gloucester to protect you're still settling effect of the loss was -- yet he lost -- every -- to close to -- well I think what we can -- from Patrick -- he's not really -- grown -- mature more capable Superman with a -- He's well kind of weakling I don't say this to be mean but just took the only sounds -- he's a guy who should be out advocating in the in the eighty. Four. Things that he wants to do that don't belong in government addition a lot of laws he wants. I have no place in America it's -- perhaps some usually don't volunteer forest perhaps a -- volunteer nonprofit community based work. I mean he he's been pretty clear about it usually in the aftermath of a tough incident. He's he obviously has some mummy an awesome addiction. It challenges -- disorders. And that that you know that that. Creates a weakness and people that is that is -- troubled -- I think it's fair to say is mental health issues that and I think he's there -- be better off families out there with you know either either alcoholism or some type in drug dependency. You know son or daughter or niece nephew was heartbreaking to see and it's it this I mean this is one that's not demographic this is not one that cuts across. Is it is one I mean that cuts across class lines so he could be the son of a multimillionaire is Patrick Kennedy is. I could just be down and out -- from Matta pin were or something you can have a -- and addictive disorder and many fairly suffer from. So while Patrick issued a statement there was to be will will be played on the Rhode Island TV during sixty minutes on Sunday night. Announcing. His reasons for stepping down and see if you think. He's stepping down for the reasons he -- or do you think he's getting out -- he doesn't wanna face the turmoil. Of what this reelection -- represented.

I'm Patrick Kennedy we all know how difficult the past few years and then. Rhode Island -- have struggled stung by job loss health insurance denials home foreclosures and retirement security. Illness took the life of my most cherished not -- confidant for my ultimate source spirit and strength. From the countless lives she lifted to the American promise he helped shape my father taught me that politics at its very core was about serving others. For two decades I've been humbled and honored to represent the people of our state. Together we fought to support our navy base and expand community health centers. On afterschool programs and senior senators and pass landmark laws ending insurance discrimination against the mentally ill. My father instilled in me deep commitment to public service. Whether through elected office like him as Brothers or non profit out of it seem like I'm this is where -- Special Olympics. Now having spent two decades in politics. My life is taking new direction. And I will not be a candidate for reelection cheer.

That's a good statement I think is gross it is not all my law and how robust that is a that is a very very. Focus decent human statement it's got to realize how does that gross why were you vomiting. What if you stop that was -- liberal all the music that that's a campaign commercial. That's not on this communication is he not on us music player that. NBA yeah because piano music you don't want to girl I know we go to because people -- why isn't Darryl how we mean why is -- the past few years and then. Rhode Island campus it's about opponent for the online job changes health insurance denials -- happy occasion was music and myself that's about the -- it's -- to create I don't know how the only more are ES assemblyman. I got a better idea as a musical selections OK let's hear -- Are you guys are so I honest to god you guys -- Kennedy guys talk to you guys go to way yeah like Yahoo! funeral that's to a just a --

But at a funeral we all know -- to go and how much better for Rhode Island analysts struggled. On my job loss however. I tell -- oh okay okay.

You guys --

I would like to beat faster -- a lot better than have him go on his own out of fear.

He's saying I'm leaving -- right -- just -- blaming Intel SAY and don't give us the big hostile music costs well he talked about some of the things that are motivated him some of the things that he has worked just SA --

I Obama are troubled human being I can't cope with a dull life. The turmoil of a campaign without my father protect me as more than I can take. I'm getting out it's a bad year are for wimps like mail -- event and I'm gonna go do what I should do and volunteer for the special Olympic hall blind lawyer do you want one that's what he should be ERA cruel guy here I was thinking that maybe on a Friday did the -- the human kindness might be somewhere. Somewhere. The normal little angry was that because I was in what you're not eating because you were denied we were gonna look bad FF and he's not man enough to stand up for -- Kevin you're on the ball exactly. Good morning Kevin.

Gentlemen I have been horribly. -- horribly wrong why okay would that all -- And -- that they're Republican living in the northeast. You know basically get the end kicked it might face every day and you know I was really looking forward to this race. Once the economy agree raise ticket it was going to be it was going to be terrific you know and end this thing is. I want it up bar fight OK because again there's somebody who gets up works three part time jobs every day has come under employed thanks to Obama. You know I really don't have much say in what goes on I can quote sure -- You know there. We're gonna be like my brass -- I was gonna step back and watch the Kennedys get just. Beat -- you know in it would take away from me despite what the coyote wooded sport caught a -- should it go like -- get away from.

Kevin that was a very very good speech and is a sad thing that we don't get to send about the way he's supposed to look how much the Kennedys have changed in. Two generations from Joe the vicious killer that he was. Down to these wimpy kids who can and can't get themselves across the street it's it's. Joe must have turned over several times -- actress and Patrick Kennedy will probably do do well going forward I -- if you will and I don't need financial and I mean obviously -- obviously never gonna do well finance I don't think he has to worry about them but I think you'll do some good things that even new might do it comes to express memorized doubted. June good while taking.

I'll I'll put the melody on you -- now how about Nigeria.

I think the crossing state lines -- money. Work but Scott Brown. And I live in Massachusetts and I hit every intention of sending John -- fun.

Well that's a good point John Laughlin now needs and deserves your support. Because there will be other whacko Democrats coming in.

Yeah I think it's not that Kennedy you'll be somebody out but that he's gonna he's gonna have a fight so lap I think that people at this point. Are going to and I don't have unlimited funds but them to keep -- I come.

what did you think of Patrick statement and in the in the music accompaniment to.

I -- I think I was a little sad because I was looking for what it feels.

McCain would apply junior was the don't remember all I can throw a couple of.

extremes on if you want a single.

I didn't realize yeah.

And I don't want to send them.

That's really Hannity that's really all Camelot the past few years and then that's been tough. But you guys are -- god currency and this is I caddie and I believe the -- from Lynn should be able to respond graciously. Aren't racist life. To a moment there is right and this -- his sexual squaring gets me -- The question is do you think Patrick got pushed. Horry went on his own did national Democrats army had to get out no no I think they probably know -- what do you think grown on good morning Russ.

Everybody ask hasn't joke for a job -- a -- oil and those who did to you to be kidney problem has -- new product.

Can you imagine oh you're trusting pats are for the truck and if we -- dangerous elegant. Joe could be brought up on criminal charges for that I suspect.

They we have one evident -- with the traction within almost what he would do with the trying to.

But this was a shock Al -- seriously.

It's a pleasant surprise really -- way of -- example of sun goes. It's -- in the fold them.

Now well I think he had he certainly had not -- and there's no question about it this up there's a political dimension to this decision doesn't think he got -- no no I think he I think he made the decision himself -- himself easily as he said in his statement after almost two decades in office I think you said sixteen -- eighteen years the other sixteen years I was congress I was surprised NFL he served as a state before -- and I was surprised to hear that I guess the is -- She thought too quickly I guess for all of us I didn't realize he had been in congress quite that long nonetheless and I can't.

so we're if you have a good sense of the political tin man. Vote to actually use another theme song -- to got to know wonderful old apple when you're at dark. Florida --

And he began beat dads -- how to tackle the past three dozen people. And six AWR. Carrier Patrick Kennedy we all know how difficult the past few years and then now having spent two decades in -- My life is taking a new direction. Nano lobbying candidates for reelection this year it's true. It's true.

Maybe soon. But I.

And -- only here. And it's just you know again. -- cannot go. We're nowhere to. He's probably. Not by us it is a beautiful day it's a few minutes. And yet again in a long.

Series of beautiful day is does the dismantling of the Kennedy empire Camelot being sent on its way. By Scott Brown and an uprising in the country Patrick Kennedy is the latest to fall. Deciding to voluntarily get out of the race upside is that demolition being done by union guy union company. And what is actually there'll -- union volunteers. There are a lot of volunteers do you think that Patrick being pushed out by Democrats in Washington to avoid -- humiliation. Capsule that would match the -- round victory maybe you would even Democrat or tomorrow.

And don't have that kind of stumped. Good to know -- no they have sufficient information about the dynamic style that this is -- not a thing look at the polls you -- not he's not making this -- have 56%. Unfavorable 35% Ferrer and and this is not a guy likely to win reelection in a year when or are reasonably well reasonably they're easy for him to turn her -- A difficult campaign no question about it more difficult than any he's faced. And -- given his age and given the turmoil in his life again particularly since the passing was dead. Did it if it just as I don't need this I'm gonna move on so that new direction you'll see him doing something in the nonprofit community. Mark good morning until a New York it probably do some good work -- was shoved.

I hope so. We can. Have an earlier this Palin took I know he's stuck in a trip you close. I find it more closed that he was mentally challenged very -- you don't reopens on legs and still sparking a --

Or maybe he wasn't stuck gonna trap -- still -- office likes you. It's their unbelievable. Hey -- thank you mark congress in there for me this morning. John -- NASA tolerance on notice a lot of sympathetic to -- yeah plus there's a lot of compassionate god -- you guys unbelievable. That such a wonderful moment for the country you have to have a little share good morning John.

Why are you good -- that there was absolutely bush sure. Yeah and yeah okay -- I probably would like my president -- change.

I bet they would change this is a transform out of White House's and wasn't it Ted look at the cut how the country's being transformed. Well Ted -- like -- himself I smelled -- He's yeah he's of that but who whose endorsement of Barack Obama say about the us Leszek commemorating game -- out. And it goes into great detail about. Not one are great you Rhode talks about the fact that Kennedy in the progression of deceit how he made the decision up to support Obama instead of Hillary. And boy oh boy that would not be pleased with Barack Obama that was a real that was a real surprise when that happened. Only because the clintons have been very very accommodating of Ted Kennedy very de Gortari. And I Ted -- is an important historic moment I get a lot of socialism a lot of -- the Soviet. Model that he loved so much pass in this country. While hand and not how wrong was he because of Barack Obama's actually tried to do it had wanted staff Andrew right out front. Well we've been his problem was of course he's been trying to do a lot of it without it. Ted Kennedy yes and done much of this is our summit this I don't want overstated some of what he has tried to achieve in and around healthcare specifically. Probably would have been achieved -- Kennedy you've been around Kennedy was a master it calibrated. What could be achieved and what could not doing just currencies calls right --

I'm sorry I eternity though used to calibrate was gonna calibrate and though the out of the possible that is that nobody else is -- nobody else in congress. Who could have said to Barack Obama look you -- The keel liberalism the key giving a Democrat Democrat is to hide the fact your socialist what Iraq's -- thanks Earl Ford.

The other day called loose a bunch of liberals a bunch of bleeping bleep cubs right asked. Not take -- in in in in many ways Rahm Emanuel was right because he sees the -- insane overreach but many liberals. The one guy who had the credibility with the crazy liberals who could say. We have gone you know he have the muscle tennis yes this will break it to -- a little a lot from them so they put this to -- exit that's exactly what alleged they have to be saved from themselves. Kennedy was the guy who could go into that caucus room with the lives and say. That was taken with taking as far as we can't. This is where we stop and they would respect that they don't respect anybody else and they literally to -- they almost don't care about what gets chewed up in the process including right now. Their -- their own ability to get anything done.

He's here NW RQ are you celebrating this morning. I don't want good morning Keith.

I wonder if god does anybody know how much about tension he's going to get -- Kennedy's going to get. When he read we.

Sixteen years nothing gets full salary I have no they don't -- salary not the get a percentage of who have been but it it to be -- it'll be comfortable -- you won't have to worry about going on food stamps. We'll be able to do volunteer work you know the kind of thing is designed for bog your -- and RK -- high.

Yeah I the other day when Patrick Kennedy used -- use the word choke in describing what what wound up -- this guy he's not. So -- I don't find this announcement this morning stranger or what I wanna comment I think my congressperson. They can slide this is in trouble I think you're gonna see this shaping up and up here.

Well who's gonna run against her the Odierno is you -- I don't know that she had all this is a strong candidate. This economies and haven't -- candidate I have a different view.

Niki Tsongas and his wife should only in her first term. And is very very high for the opposition to say with any kind of with any sense of fairness or accuracy she's become.
